Capacitor with buried isolated electrode

A method for producing a capacitor and comprising steps of:

• providing a first thin dielectric layer having a length dimension and a width dimension and a first surface and a second surface;
• providing an electrode layer with length and width dimensions smaller respectively than those of said first dielectric layer, the electrode layer mounted centrally on the first surface of the first dielectric layer with said electrode layer spaced from contact with any electrical conductor;
• providing a second dielectric layer on the electrode layer on the opposite side from the first dielectric layer for ruggedness, the second dielectric layer having length and width dimensions coextensive with those of said first dielectric layer so that said dielectric layers combine to describe a margin outward of the electrode layer;
• providing two spaced apart electrical contact members in contact with the second surface of the first dielectric layer, each of said contact members being provided with a different polarity from that of said other contact member.
